We wanted the wooden blinds to match the wood trim around our windows. The samples that we requested really helped in getting a good match. These blinds look great, are light weight, yet are very room darkening. I would definitely recommend them to others. Installation was very easy.

Bali's Northern Heights 2" Wood Blinds are some of the best made, most all-purpose wood blinds available, making them a long-time favorite of customers. These blinds are made from North American hardwood, creating a blind that is simultaneously more durable and lightweight compared to faux wood blinds and other wood blinds. Bali's wood blinds always come with the additions that set the brand apart — all of the hardware, including ladders, cords and tassels, is color-coordinated. Comes standard with a decorative valance, with a more sculpted valance available for an additional charge. Backed by the Bali Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Install Time: 12-15 minutes

We Recommend:

Cloth tapes are available in a variety of styles, sizes and colors to make this wood blind your own.

Choose routeless slats to remove the holes in the blind, giving you more light control and privacy.

Need easier operation? Cordless lift and motorized tilt make this blind a breeze to operate.

Considerations:

Due to the size of wood slats, these blinds produce a large stack when raised.

This blind looks beautiful in any window (which is why it's so popular), but if you just need to cover an out-of-the-way window with less options, you might consider another product.

Safety:

This product complies with CPSC child safety guidelines. If you have children in your home on a regular basis, CPSC recommends the use of cordless window coverings.

great product, easy installThese Bali blinds are great. Installation was super easy and all blinds came exactly as my measurements. Do make sure you spend the extra money on nicer valances, they look great! We did months of research and if you have any "non-standard" windows dont even go look at home depot or lowes.Only problem was that two of our valances came with a chip and a scratch in them but blinds.com sent out new ones immediately with no questions asked. The customer service is like nothing ive ever received from a pure online company.We will buy from here again!October 11, 2014

Happy customerAfter being floored by quotes from two local blinds vendors we decided to try blinds.com to dress out our new house. Through blinds.com my wife and i were able to find find blinds that were a near perfect color match to our trim for a significantly more reasonable price. The blinds took less than 20 minutes/pc to install and look terrific.My only complaint is some slight warping of a few slats. Otherwise I could not be happier. I will also vouch for the "sure fit guarantee after painlessly receiving a new blind after I fudged a width measurement.A great overall experience!February 10, 2014

Great ViewThese blinds were ordered to replace vertical blinds. What a view with these Bali Northern Lights. Custom ordered two different sizes. Perfect fit for width and lenght. High quality construction and extremly easy to put up. Actually took longer to take down the old blinds than to put the Bali Nothern Lights up. We will be getting more of these from Blinds.com.August 16, 2008

Bali Blinds look good in 1928 homeMy colonial home was built 1928 in Lakewood, Ohio. The woodwork is original and has been well taken care of throughout the years. Therefore, I had to match the wood using Bali stain chips to make a match. Fortunately, they have a good slection and I was able to find a perfect match.I added a set of blinds in my dinning room to match the living room. The blinds provide a nice filter for morning and afternoon sun. They are very easy to install but stick out a little beacause of the width of the blind which you can hardly notice.A curtain or topper helps finish off the look of the blinds. I am very happy with this purchase and will refer this product to my friends and family.June 30, 2008

Everything as AdvertisedThis one blind replaced two 1" mini-blinds.The 2 inch look much better and the all wood slats do not droop like the previous mini- blinds.January 14, 2015

MISS MEASUREDI'm very happy with the blinds ordered. They look great. But what I was most impressed with the service. I happened to mix up my measurements interposing height and width. When I called I was treated with the utmost consideration. The new blinds arrived within a couple of weeks and were just what I had hoped for. Great people to do business with.March 16, 2015

AVOID NO HOLESI ORDERED 10 BLINDS AND ONLY RECOMMEND THEM WITH THE CHANGES SET FORTH BELOW. THE "NO HOLES" ONLY HAVE VERY SLIGHT CUTS IN THE SLAT TO HOLD THE CORD AND IT DOES NOT HOLD VERY WELL. THE SLATS KEEP GETTING OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND WORSE SLIP OUT COMPLETELY IF THE BLIND IS NOT RAISED CAREFULLLY OR NOT CLEANED CAREFULLY. I AM GOING TO ADD HOLDDOWNS TO SEE IF IT MAKES THIS PROBLEM MANAGEABLE.GET THE TILT ROD AS OTHERWISE BOTH CONTROLS LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME.ALSO ON AN INSIDE INSTALLATION THE LENGTH MUST JUST FIT THE OPENING TO HANG RIGHT. ANY EXTRA LENGTH PREVENTS THE BOTTOM SLAT FROM CLOSING TIGHTLYONE OF THE BLINDS ALSO HAS FADED AND IS NOW LIGHTER THAN THE OTHERS.INSTALLED INSIDE THE FRAME THEY LOOK JUST LIKE SHUTTERS WITHOUT THE PROBLEMS THE SEPARATE SHUTTER FRAME WOULD HAVE CREATED.OVERALL THE WOOD BLINDS LOOK VERY GOOD WHEN EVERYTHING IS IN ALIGNMENT.THE BLINDS WERE DELIVERED WHEN PROMISED BUT THE OUTSIDE HEADERS WERE WRONG AND MISSING THE SIDE RETURNS. THESE WERE CORRECTED IN A COUPLE WEEKS BUT I HAVE NOT HADE THE TIME TO REMOVE THE WRONG ONE AND INSTALL THE NEW ONES.May 17, 2007

Bali 2" Wood Blinds ReviewBest thing about these blinds where the ease of installation. I am an engineer and very mechanically inclined, but do not credit it to that. Instructions are very clear and well put together. I'm also really glad I went ahead and ordered some color samples, as the color match is dead on. I am also really glad that I spent the extra to get the real wood instead of faux, as I have in the past.Construction is top notch, and was delivered in 1 day after being made... on a Saturday even! Really glad I went with what I did, over a generic Home Depot/Lowe's option.Reason for a 4/5 overall rating is that the width of the slats prevents it from fully closing to prevent all of light from coming through. If you're looking to filter a lot of light, order a smaller width slat (i.e.: 1").April 9, 2009

Wish I had used Blinds.com productI have ordered blinds.com products in the past, with excellent results. This time I selected the Bali product, and I regret it. Install instructions were not specific enough to the product I selected - in other words the install instructions covered many products and parts, and I had to try to guess which one to use. As it turned out, they sent me two sets of valance clips, neither one of which are for my valance. I have called and new ones are on the way. The biggest problem, however, is that the blinds don't close all the way. I called customer service, and they told me that 2" blinds don't really close all the way. I have seen my neighbor's 2" blinds, and they close all the way.August 13, 2007

Should have upgraded the valanceThe blinds are very decent, but the standard valance looks soooooo cheap! From the pictures on the website, I thought it would be okay. But the pictures depict an "outside the window frame installation," and mine was installed inside. So the valance is just a strip at the top of the blinds. It just looks cheap and I wish I had paid a few bucks extra and updated the valance.June 8, 2013

Love the blindsthis is my 3rd purchase. Wonder why anyone would purchase any place else. Great product, excellent customer service, easy to install. Will continue to use. Have one more room to complete my windows.Thank youFebruary 12, 2015

Nice ProductI order 2" Northern Heights Wood. I paid a little extra to add fabric over the strings to hide the sun and the premium Valance. All a great choice and they look good.Only small dissatisfaction was the "Wand control" for the shade open/close. It is very hard to turn because the wand is so thin. I glued a rubber boot over the end of the wand (misc material around the house) that made the wand turning much easier. They should change this in the design, but I doubt it. Some other recommend ordering the draw-string option for open/close of blinds, but I find that a bit cumbersome to operate and strings often can get tangled when used allot. I also special ordered an external valance for my internal blinds at no extra cost, and it looks great.... Make sure you specify the correct length you want when ordering this special way. Great ordering and servicing experience from this company. I would order again from them.September 28, 2013

Remote Control BlindsI really like the way the blinds look and the convenience of remote control. I had two blinds installed along one long wall, both of which are supposed to work from the same remote. The problem is that they don't always (or I should say they seldom) work together as they should. Sometimes I have to open and close one a couple times before the other blind moves. I would recommend either having each blind programmed separately or having a separate remote for each blind.June 13, 2014

I have slowly replaced 22 blinds 13 to goI replace windows with Northern lights wood blinds as I redo rooms. I have done 22 and 13 to go. They operate very smoothly and look great. Snap to install. Need a couple of days to get over paint odor as they come fresh from factory. Would be 5 stars in all categories except the screw hardware could be better as the heads often strip out, too soft but I just keep a supply of my screws on hand. Suggest you pilot screw holes. Fix hardware and Blinds.com gets 5 stars all over.December 28, 2014

Measuring for a Perfect FitFor OUTSIDE MOUNT ON MOLDING ONLY: Be sure to factor in an adjustment for the brackets because the factory does not do this. I mounted my blinds on the molding of the window and subtracted a 1/4 of an inch from the width of the window and the blinds fit perfect. I did not do this with my first purchase so the brackets hang off the edge of the molding a bit.June 13, 2014

Poor FinishBllinds were OK to install and the stain/color is fine but I was disapointed in the poly finish. The spray was rather light and therefore not very smooth so it looks sort of rough in the light...almost dusty. If you have ever sprayed poly you know what I mean...October 7, 2013

Very nice resultCame promptly. I installed the three blinds in about an hour. Fit perfectly. Look great.February 14, 2008

Northern Woods 2" Wood BlindsWe purchased 15 blinds for our home. They arrived in perfect condition and each one fit exactly as ordered. Some rooms have multiple same-size windows with minor differences in width and Blinds.com handled the order beautifully. The shipping boxes identified the specific blind measurements and room name.I used the chatline a couple of times and one Customer Rep, Mario, sent me a good number of "white" samples so I could choose the perfect "white".I have and will recommend Blinds.com to friends and associates. We are a repeat customer and appreciate the professional customer reps. The website is full of info and very easy to use. My husband commented on how easy it was to do the installation.September 4, 2014

Love my new blinds!Very excited to have our two new Bali blinds! They arrived very quickly - seemed like the door bell rang as soon as I clicked "Purchase" !! They are very nice quality and installed relatively easily (once my husband- great guy but not exactly a patient-do-it-yourselfer- figured out how to overcome a metal obstruction at one side of the first window casing)! Once the yelling subsided, the rest of the installation process went very smoothly :>) The blinds make a great improvement to my office and the guest room! We would definitely buy from this company again!August 25, 2014
